    Tonight, I bought a large McChicken meal with Coke, an apple pie and 3 McDippers from McDonalds. Classy.

    I think that the exchange rate for Giulias are pretty even all over Europe
    15.000 euros is about the same up here, for a good car. Though the later models, above 1970. The early Scalinos is a bit higher. But I bet they are down there to

    Surely you dont need to start a matra in the cold if your going downhill. These babies will do wonders in the powder compared to the Atomic SX B-5's I currently use.

    Today, I accidentally - auction + dealers = bad- bought a POS bicycle for $15. It got me back and the chain snapped. Then I busted a tire slamming it into a curb. And it doesn't have front brakes.

    Oh well, I'll go hit up the local bike collective for free/volunteer parts. This isn't the last you've seen of it. There will be major hoonage when it rises from the dead.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    that's a RHD version....might attract less $$ as an LHD.

    Yeah, the RHD versions are rare.
    It looks like a OK car, you would get more for that car in Europe I would think.
    Especially because of the RHD. The brits have less to choose from here in Europe. It's not a step front (Scalino) though, which would have given it some more possible customers..

    Not at all a bad album, but a fairly generic sound I have to admit - Somewhere between a nasal Duffy and Amy Winehouse, but without the 60's influenced fashion of either. There is a warmth and vunerability that I think Duffy's aloof vocals and Winehouses Crackwhore chic lacks, though - the voice of a girl who hasn't felt the ravages of Mark Ronson yet.

    "Under my skin" is a surprise omission from the album, but "Golden Ship" and "Hey Ho" are worth downloading.

    6.5./10 on the RegScale.



    The Editors have always been a little funny for me. Their first record was criticised for being A Joy Division imitation, so they went Rock for their Second release, which was criticised for being too Guitar heavy. So now they've released their Third album...and they've gone too far again.

    It's Synth Heavy (as is de rigeur for 2009) but they can never seem to strike the balance - the Guitar is very much secondary. Perhaps they should stop listening to the critique and cheer up a bit, because it's still fairly mournful stuff, all long notes and monotonous lyrics. "Papillon" is the highest tempo track on the Album, while "Eat Raw Meat = Blood Drool" is strangely reminiscent of 70's rock.

    A disappointment. 4/10.
